I pulled the trigger and had a local shop custom bend pipes and install my Flowmaster 40s today. Even with the header flanges a little low, I’ll have enough clearance with our smooth roads around here. And it’s WAY better than it was by light years, even with bigger tubing. I’ll say it again, that Summit crossmember is sweet. The biggest challenge for them was getting around the e-brake cable on passenger side.

That looks good! I broke down 2 years ago and had the duals replaced on my scout. So glad I did it!

I wouldn't be able to wait 5 hours to put new door panels on my truck. It changes the look with that new dash.

Got the doors to shut with the single "click" method after doing the PEX trick on the door strikers. Man, that's the easiest thing I've done on my truck. Also gonna finally fix that high beam with condensation in it that's been bugging me...

Took the grill out to paint. I forgot that I had put plasti-dip on it. I've got about 95% of it off. I'll not use that stuff on anything that isn't disposable or flat.

Love those bumpers. I had one when I lived in Cali, it didn't make the move to Texas. :(

Swept out the bed and was wondering what kinda bed spray or something I could put on it. Even with a paint roller that's not too expensive. I'm gonna have to strip off that black stuff that's coming off first.

Should I clean it up then primer it and then put the liner on? Think that would be better than just bare metal.
